Robin,,progress on the brick ?

Been amassing parts but have had no time to install them.....the "J" thing should be over this week so will have a couple weeks of uninterrupted "ME" time for the brick and the boat.....and enough liquid cash to to accomplish what is needed.

Waiting right now on four front brake hoses....be here next Tues.....may have out foxed myself...bought a complete set of rotors/pads/hardware stuff.....front rotors are vented.....not positive mine are....if not may have change out calipers too...no biggie...'nuther $100.00....and I'd be happier with all new stuff anyway....don't put much stock in 36/37 yr old hydraulic stuff.

Got the paperwork on it this week in the mail....some cool things.....the brick has a new auto trans (7000 miles ago) and a complete new steering rack at about the same time......me liken' that.....

Gotta pull the radiator and unsolder that upper hose connection you spoke of, clean it all up and then solder it back in.....whilst I have that off the car gonna replace the timing belt and tensioner, crank seal, cam seal and distributer shaft seal...replace all fan belts too...

Plenty to do but once done should be pretty darn bulletproof.......daughters getting antsy/naggy...kinda ...."woman like".....

Grrr. Now I'm frustrated with the Craftsman.

Replaced fuel line, filter, rebuilt carb with new gaskets, jet, didn't do welch plugs.

Starts fine and idles fine.

Cannot get it to throttle up unless I touch the trigger very lightly and then will go from low to high speed. Any more than 1/4 throttle and it boggs and dies if I hold it open more than a second or two.

Had a similar situation with my sons Poulan and bought a carb for it, tuned it and was good to go. I'm beginning to hate carbs.:bang::bang::bang::bang:

Any ideas what could be wrong? I did a search but didn't see the exact problem.

Overtime. Back at it tomorrow.

The carb is not feeding the engine enough fuel. Either the carb is not getting enough fuel from the tank, the metering lever is not set correctly or the jets are plugged up somewhere. Flushing out the holes where the adjustment needles are housed usually cleans out those bores but not always. Sometimes it requires the welch plugs to be removed and some additional cleaning done.

Give another 1/4 - 1/2 turn out on the L side. May be plugged up some ? Some of the Poolins need 2 or even 3 turns out on the L side to run.

Give it. Try tonight.

I took both needles out during rebuild. Took off limiters so will look at the welsh plugs and clean some more. Carb is a pain to pull off this thing.

Thanks for the help and will maybe try it tonight. Seal the welsh new plugs with clear nail polish I suppose.
